Linux Lite Forums - Open Shot video editor question: is this the only version in the repos ?

1-14-18.

i have linux lite 3.6 installed, and all is updated.
desktop PC , AMD 64bit
8 GB memory.

i have open shot video editor 1.4.3,
are there any newer versions ?, this version of this video editor is buggy.
plus i tried cinelerra-cv, kdenlive, dont like them, buggy as well, lol, i like open shot for windows , but hoping to get it to work on linux lite 3.6 .

i just want to add iamge clips, video clips, split video and delete the parts i dont want , and so on, nothing fancy.

v2.4.1 is available from https://www.openshot.org/download/ (click the Linux download button)

I installed directly from the site but as I am not at my LL machine, can't verify which version. Also the download appears to be an 'AppImage' file which I've not heard of so I conclude I must have downloaded a deb file.
There is a PPA option too.

Edit: Just looked up AppImage, linux equiv of Portableapps. Another interesting thing to 'play with!' Executable file self contained app.

Pleased to hear it works for you.
I thus downloaded it myself with the intention of removing the older version but for me it presents a bug as soon as it starts - a small window relating to Help opens and won't close until the program is closed. Will try a new download later.
